Unregistered marriages are not only haram. They are also haram. Socially unacceptable. Second wives, mistresses, unplanned pregnancies, and other stereotypes exist as if women were solely to blame. They have legal protection to protect women. Why not take advantage of it. According to Indonesian law, this study aims to determine the legal status and the impact of criminal law on unregistered marriages. The research approach uses normative juridical.

The author uses secondary data in a library research approach, "data collected from library materials."
